    General Showcase 2021

    Yeah, despite the Shadowrun jab, I still think these all sound pretty cool. Especially excited for the Brothers War and Unfinity. Kind of worried about Warhammer 40k, it has great lore, but I hope they don't try to replicate the mechanics of Warhammer in Magic. Just... stay in the lore please ;)

    I think they did this because Topps wouldn't give them the rights to Shadowrun :p

    General Favorite Cards You Don't Run

    I love Heartless Summoning Quest for Ula's Temple And couldn't run either for a long time, I've gotten around to making the Heartless Summoning archetype work in one of my Cubes by the drafters getting two when they pick it, but can't figure out Ula, it really needs a high density of cards that...

    General Do you enjoy playing Chess?

    I think I "like" Chess, but I don't "love" Chess. The coolest moment for me was when I was helping teach out at my Church's family retreat (pre-Covid) for the children and one of my students asked me to play Chess, and I accidentally did the four moves win and then I realized, "oh no, I'm that...

    General Fight Club

    Fortune's Favor Is a lot more mind-gamey, it's really fun, and players usually "get" it. I don't think it's that good, but it definitely creates some fun moments of "Oh I don't need any three of these cards, I'll take the face-down one... a land? Seriously?"

    General Silver bordered cards

    Thankfully while looking for the answer to the above question I was able to find this lovely site that has unofficial reimaginings of Unglued 2, Cutouts from Inquest and The Duelist magazines, cards from a bunch of different video games, and employee and commemorative cards without official...

    General Silver bordered cards

    After spending much too long researching, my conclusion is: likely not, but I know for certain it works with cards like Charming Prince since you choose when they enter the battlefield, not on the stack. And More or Less says “spells” not instant or sorcery. So for me I think I would house rule...

    General Silver bordered cards

    More or Less is the cheese whiz of janky fun crap that probably shouldn't be in your cube, but now that you have it you can't live without it. It bounces back and forth between my "Occassionals" and my includes because it's either 1. a 1 damage ping or preventer 2. a high tide if you have...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    In low-powered I always prefer fanatical firebrand goblin arsonist that way if they whiff, they still ping the face, ashling the pilgrim is alright too and of course perilous myr sometimes I wish he was red oh wait careless celebrant almost lol

    General We Make The Cube

    Just quoting this so people know I was tagged lol We have a lot more artifact glue, but I'll be damned if I don't add Brudiclad, Telchor Engineer Just turning all of your clue/food/treasure tokens into 2/1's at the beginning of combat is pretty good. @Zoss @Brad

    General We Make The Cube

    I got you @Sheltem For now, I'm thinking of something janky and fun Lithoform Engine We have lots of triggers so it should work well Also paging @VincePendrell again

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    I've been loving bloodbraid marauder really screams GRAVEYARD SPELL SYNERGY, but probably not considered elegant (if you include the cascade rules text version it's basically the whole card :p)

    General We Make The Cube

    ooooh I love the direction this is all going, we need a lot more artifacts and such, for now, I'm just going to put in Maelstrom Wanderer For the "low" chance of hitting the Ultimatums which might be a bit too scary, I also considered Maelstrom Colossus and Apex Devastator, but I guess "turbo"...

    Card/Deck Targeted Discard

    Currently I don't run any but that was because my players didn't like their Zacama, Primal Calamity getting Blackmailed.

    Sets (AFR) Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Previews- Dripping with Flavor, and Excess Words!

    Yeah it's a hard card to evaluate, the Ratchet Bomb example was more of something to compare it to, not something of "look at this it's the exact same!" Which obviously it isn't :p It's a ritual of soot that hits planeswalkers with the added benefit of exiling graveyards, but the added cost of...

    Sets (AFR) Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Previews- Dripping with Flavor, and Excess Words!

    To me it’s pretty comparable to a black ratchet bomb it will likely kill the higher cost stuff “faster” than ratchet bomb too, it clears all those pesky tokens, AND it clears the gravecrawlers. I think that this card is way better than it looks. If you have a lot of artifact removal in your cube...

    Sets (AFR) Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Previews- Dripping with Flavor, and Excess Words!

    I'd be a little pissed if my DM only offered me two to three options when they present me with a situation, but since it's also a nice callback to those old school text based adventures where those were the only options, then I suppose it's a flavor win ;)

    General Extra turn effects

    Never felt like running Time Warp or his other cost friends but I've always felt like Final Fortune Glorious End Might fit somewhere, and could make some fun interaction, like, "yeah you could win, but it'll also be cool if you don't" But I never get to run them because my drafters skip over...

    Sets (MH2) Modern Horizons 2 Previews

    Ah sick, more support for my lower powered Abzan sacrifice decks edit: hmm, for whatever reason on mobile I wasn’t shown the other posts, or maybe I completely missed what page I was on? Whatever still hyped for these.

    General Waddellian, Riptidian, Funchian

    Not my style, I'm fine with changes from books to tv because it's obvious that changes have to be made and cuts of scenes will happen. Removal of two of the main characters with no reasons given why is a bit daft. Changing the setting to modern fantasy is also odd, granted it is pleasing to the...
